"What's it like to be a male nurse in a woman-dominated profession? For Richard Steele it means incompetent administrators, drug-addicted doctors, a whacked-out nursing staff, long and grueling hours, and bizarre patients. Confessions of a Male Nurse is a roller-coaster ride through the on- and off-duty life of a gay male nurse in the early 1980s. This hilarious, often touching, dark comic novel will take you on a wild ride with our irreverent hero with some of the wackiest adventures to the horrifying beginning of the AIDS crisis."--BOOK JACKET.
